|
||||

|
||||

### I am an advanced user
|
||||
|
||||
If you check this, this will enable uBO's [dynamic filtering](./Dynamic-filtering), and the dynamic filtering pane will become available from uBO's popup UI.
|
||||
|
||||
Unchecking this disables dynamic filtering. And the dynamic filtering pane in the popup UI will no longer be available.
|
||||
|
||||
_Advanced user_ mode also gives access to the [advanced settings](./Advanced-settings) (normally hidden), and enables the ability to filter [behind-the-scene network requests](./Behind-the-scene-network-requests).
|
||||
|
||||
You should avoid playing with advanced features and settings unless [you understand fully what you are doing](./Advanced-user-features).

### Disable hyperlink auditing
|
||||
|
||||
Checking this will prevent hyperlink auditing. _Hyperlink auditing_ is best summarized as a "phone home" feature (or more accurately "phone anywhere") meant to inform one or more servers of which links you click on (and when). The details are well explained [here](https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/hyperlink-auditing-aka-a-ping-and-beacon-aka-navigator-sendbeacon.364904/) and the case of why such feature is harmful to users is well-argued [here](https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/major-browsers-to-prevent-disabling-of-click-tracking-privacy-risk.415381/#post-2822723).
